i mean what exactly is this tabbed stuff?? sry im not tht understanding of stuf like tht plz explain more

You get tabs along the top of you browser so you can have loads of pages open and switch between them easily.

It's a small download and it's free. I advise you just install it and see for yourself how good it is. I will not be going back to IE in a hurry! :D

i have it already i got it right when i posted this comment thnx lots

The best advantage is that it has a built in ad blocker and it doesn't have the incredibly big security holes that IE have. This mean very less ads to worry about and very little malware getting thru in comparison to IE.

The tabbed browsing is only something to get used to.

If you want to be completely safe, better disable Java tough.

You also can install this extension / plugin called Adblock through the Extra-menu on the Extensions part. It's pretty awesome too. And if some ads manage to slip past the ad-blocker, you can manually enter their URL in the blocker and forget about them forever. ;)

Yeah I recently imported an entire list of the msot frequent ads into Adblock... I haven't seen a single ad for the time being.
I also use a Tab-plugin to get more advanced tab options (because to say tabbed browsing comes with firefox isn't exactly true since you need to press on ctrl before clicking on a link all the time to make it open in a new tab instead of a new cindow which is quite annoying)

If you have a middle button/scroll wheel you can click that on a link and it will open a new tab. You can also drag links on to the tab you want them to open in! :D
